In July, we are driving a car to Mongolia in the Mongol Rally. We don’t know what car, we haven’t bought it yet. But God help us if it’s big.You see, Deb is short and she often has a hard time seeing over the steering wheel. This post is to tell you about Deb’s driving quirks.
There are many solo travel blogs out there that talk about how traveling is solo is great and we admire the people that travel alone. It takes a strong person of a certain breed that can go out into the world solo and explore. We are not those people. Traveling as a couple is all we know. Over the years we have developed a system and have found traveling as a couple provides a lot of benefits as opposed to going it alone.
Sure, we have been to resorts and 5 star hotels, but it is always the suffering that stands out in our minds when we reminisce.

You have trekked to the hills, sat on Kho San drinking too much Singha beer, seen one to many pagodas and you haven’t had a decent shower in I don’t know how long. Not the makings of romance for you and your significant other.
